Other Watch out Facebook - Arsebook is here :-)

I've been at a loose end the past couple of days, apart from a lecture at uni last night, so decided to have a go at making a social networking site. It's never going to be as functional as Facebook, nor will it ever be a patch on them in terms of members (currently at 2). I've enjoyed messing around with it though and it's been a cool little project.

I used Wordpress on the backend, with the Buddypress plugin, and a mixture of other custom plugins and off the shelf ones too. I spent around a full day on it so far, and there's some more stuff left to do. If I can get a few of my mates interested in it, I may buy a domain name for it. As it is, it's just sat in a sub-folder atm.

Anyways, feel free to have a nosey, and let me know what you think. Good or bad, I'm keen to hear it

Signed up! If for no other reason than being able to say I was the fourth member when it takes over the world

 

I'll sign up in the morning, too tired to atm.. This will be awesome though

 

Signed up using Facebook

 

I found that ironic and therefore created an account

 

Seems like it could be a cool idea. Pretty funny

 

Nice site, signed up

It will be our bit-tech away from bit-tech...... or.......something.......

 

Make me #7 if only to see how this scales with more load.

 

Looks good, you just need to add in some games (the only good thing about facebook)

 

Nice number 10

It would be funny if this went big like bigger than facebook

i think first 10 members should get a profit from it when you're famous

 

Sure, I signed up. No idea what number I am, though.

Very nicely built, though.

 

Thanks guys, I really appreciate you all taking the time to sign up. If it ever does take off, the party's on me for the first 100 members I've created a group for Bit-Tech'ers, and sent invites out to you all. Regards the games, I want them to be more integrated into the site, and that's what I'm working on next.

 

Signed up today lol.

 

Signed up, but can't seem to log in, page just refreshes.

Have you activated your account?

 

It shows you as regged but waiting for email confirmation. Have you checked your junkmail folder for the confirm email? My anti spam went loopy with the arsebook in the addy If you don't get the email, let me know and I will sort it out for you.

EDIT: I've just activated your account for you, you should be able to login now.

 

its an interesting, even from the point of view of how facebook and the others evolved from the beginning

 

arsebook.com is already taken hope you bought it

 

signed up as well, although i would have gone for f*ckbook.
More or less what i refer to the current facebook...
